Saudi Arabia: Five new MERS cases, one death

In the context of the work of epidemiological investigation and ongoing follow-up carried out by the Ministry of Health for the virus (Corona) that causes respiratory syndrome Middle East MERS CoV Ministry announces the registration of five cases of HIV infection in Jeddah.

The first resident at the age of 70 years, has passed away - may he rest in peace - and the second citizen at the age of 51 years, and receiving treatment for intensive care, asking God has a cure, and the third for citizenship operate the domain of health at the age of 28 years old and has no symptoms, and the fourth resident to operate the domain of health at the age of 45 years, and has no symptoms, and the fifth resident at the age of 56 years, and his condition is stable.

Have been checked 190 samples during the last period, have demonstrated passivity except as stated above.

Two more health workers with MERS, asymptomatic or not, make Saudi infection control look bad. Saudi cases now total 194, with 69 deaths.

Mike Coston at Avian Flu Diary has this story (you can also use his link to FluTrackers' growing list of Jeddah cases), and also a good post about MERS message control.
